Zhejiang - Taizhou - Tiantai Mountain Travels
FIT Straight To roof to the mountains to the rain is always unexpected, but I still lingers on the roof of the tranquility of being unwilling to leave in a hurry.
Last year, those days are always the most busy, and many things to RBI completed, and many preparations have to start again. When they finally feel that feeling the need to calm down about the time, I chose to Tiantai Mountain.
Just the car, is disappointing. County is small, chaotic and without features, just as the major junctions of the city traffic lights, although it has not installed to open to use, that is, not ancient nor modern, and some neither fish nor fowl. Taxi drivers, poor attitude, from the reluctance to use the meter, counter-offer is also not possible, to the hotel, just 34 kilometers away is necessary to 15 yuan. However, when the next one into the mountains, all this would not be important.
The Kokuseiji the door to catch the coach up the mountain, perhaps the off-season's sake, that is a tourist line, but are actually residents of the mountain foot of the mountain between the commuter car. And the uncle had a seat next to no one's chatting up, then found that it is hard to understand dialect of the mountains.
It took more than 20 kilometers of the disk mountain, I came to the shiliang waterfalls. This season, the mountain is very quiet, almost never quite found other visitors. Shiji forward along the mountain, one side is a woven bamboo and various trees in the woods together, one side is covered with moss of the mountain, many places still knot thick ice, pick up a years, a thorough and crystal, crystal outline the contours of thousands of lines. Gradually, and heard the sound of water, followed by a small bridge. Turned around the corner we saw a curtain falls, the water is not. It also does not think the feeling of waterfalls, then right again along the waterfall next to the mountain to go down. In fact, do not like the feeling of traveling alone, without someone to talk to are often very lonely journey, too many idle worry makes you think of a lot of things. However, the roof is quiet different kind of taste, immersed in the picturesque landscapes and clear air, it appeared all the earth's natural when compared with the pure are unimportant, so it's no wonder the scenery Buddhist Tiantai will originate in the This has.
Is such a thought, in front of the subtle emergence of a temple. Fang Guang Temple Legend has it that Lohan 500 total temples divided into upper, middle and lower three temples, the door was about to go into the temple beneath the wide, the Fan Shen a view, among the mountains of the emergent spectacle. Laid down a few steps there is a Bi-pit, on which a waterfall. Previous screens to see which is the small waterfall, suddenly increased to more than 30 meters of a gap so that the original look delicate and elegant of the jian shui is also adding to the endless momentum. If the rainy period, it must be also sublime. Waterfalls hanging off of the Department, the confrontation between the two mountain cliffs, a rock lying mountains and water, which is shiliang of. So hurry back to the mountains, came to the Chinese Temple Cascade widely the best place beams in front of there predecessors carved, "ex-again", "10000 Mountain critical" number of characters. Rock about 0.3 meters wide, Xu Xia-ke adventure from the previous year had passed, he wrote in Travels, "under the bird's-eye view pools, gross bone Ju frightened" and now has banned visitors pass. Shiliang pick an empty about 2 meters tall, this self-contained waterfall folded after the foot-Bi-Hong Tan, hydroacoustic skies, stirring up a storm cloud. Shiliang scenery from waterfalls to see everywhere is different, there are walking for the wonderful scene. I turn back down the mountain, accompanied waterfall move on, unconsciously, has played under the thick rain, the water loop after the blooming ring of water waves. But I was unwilling to leave in a hurry, then the dense woods for me to block this unexpected mountain rain.
Came a very distant Guanbao Ting scenic, verdant mountains, yellow temples, hanging a curtain falls Rushuang In the meantime, I began to understand why Li Bai wrote "Que Feng-Lung Lau refused to live, want to soar straight to the rooftop "verse. Although I am just passing through, though, after a brief escape from hustle and bustle I am going to return, but in this moment, I was able to enjoy the peace of mind greedy.
The rain began to stop.
Gonglue Line: It is recommended to sit back and forth all buses directly to the Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway, the price is slightly expensive, 100 yuan / person, but to spend less time, full four hours.

Or you can take a train to Hangzhou and Hangzhou East Bus Station and then transfer vehicle to the roof. This trip can be lower prices, bus ticket 43 yuan / person, train tickets depending on the different trips more than 10 yuan to 40 dollars. But with transfer, the total time-consuming and would be more than 5 hours.

At the local travel, passing by the West station to the Guoqing Temple Mount Akagi 7 Bus be most helpful for the tourist, but the longer time interval. Recommendations or choose a taxi, the general way is 15-20 yuan, a taxi into the country do not have to pay 10 yuan-ching scenic / scenic people tickets. To shiliang attractions such as waterfalls and the Chinese top coach departure from the days of Taipei Station, but the tourists can Kokuseiji on the train, so more convenient.

The frequency of down time ends at 16:30 at the latest, so to mention ask clear, or else a lot of trouble. If many people suggested that the door Kokuseiji chartered a private mini-vans into the mountains, back and forth 100. And drivers can take you to bypass toll booths could save tens of dollars per ticket, is actually very cost-effective.
Return are subject to the West Zhanshang Che from the roof, turn the train to Hangzhou or directly return to Shanghai.

There is also a special choice to live in Guoqing Temple, the five human 5 yuan / person, the most expensive are only 20 yuan. But health and bathing is not convenient, and at 20:30 the lights out of.
I chose the Akagi hotels, 170 yuan / rooms. Equipment, some old, but fairly clean. Hotel restaurants are also inexpensive, costing less than 30 yuan per person.
Food:
There is a local specialty snacks pull discard paste, dumplings cake cylinders, Maibing, Bian Shi and so on, very good, recommend a try. The main feature is the use of wheat flour instead of flour. The streets dry shavings taste very good. In the roof a la carte is not expensive, but the price of lunch, and pasta and Shanghai, almost. In which county workers, West Road Akagi quite affordable fast food, taste good, and operating until 2:00 am.
You:
If you look a little harder, then visit each attraction time not last more than two hours. However, the roof is worth your time to appreciate quiet, in fact, well suited to love people to go out there.
Among them, Guoqing Temple was built in the Sui Dynasty, Wufeng surrounded shuangjianji Ying flow inside and outside the temple and ancient trees, is the birthplace of the Tiantai Buddhist temple and the total is also South Korea, Japan and the birthplace of the Tiantai.
Xu Xia-ke mentioned in the Travels shiliang waterfalls beautiful scenery.
Do not miss the two remaining spots are relatively general, be free to allocate according to schedule. If it is not in May and rhododendrons blooming season, the main peak there is no need to go to China the top.
I live in the Akagi mountain, so eating a dinner to the station borrowed a total emergency lights, climbing in the darkness of the Akagi mountain, hand, there are different kind of taste, but also saving tickets.
Another scenic area south of Han Shan Lake is also worth a visit, but need to have adequate time.
